hi Marian -great! can’t wait to see what you do with them. They both have lovely lines. so hard to find lovely furniutre like this in australia – and it sells for hundreds of dollars even when it’s in dire need for a make over. I’m so envious of you American gals!
I’m painting today too but it’s boiling hot and I’m dying!
cheers Fiona

I need to go shopping with your for my new house that I want to look old….I need help seeing the possibilities in old furniture because I don’t like much of the new furniture I see….
Got an open day in the next 6 months??? teehee

WHERE SHOULD DO I GO….Visiting Hickory NC for x2 days in May…Do you or your readers have some “just have to see” vintage shops. I couldn’t fit anything like those lovely dressers in my suitcase (even though I am a great packer!)…but would love to bring back some North Carolina Bric-a-Brac…Thanks Coreen

I am so glad you are back in the saddle! I miss your furniture posts. Maybe this will be the inspiration I need to get moving myself! Can’t wait to see what you do with them! The second one is a real teaser of a picture.

I’m always so jealous of the pieces you come by so easily out east. It’s pretty dry here in Colorado when it comes to beautiful old furniture. Or they want an arm and leg for it. The hubby has promised me a trip back east with a uhaul to bring back all of my finds lol.

That tallboy dresser is beautiful. I hear you on your comment of being “a kid in a candy store” as I am just the same. Nothing feels better that finding that perfect vintage piece (for a steal too!).
Love your blog. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Marian – I love the beaded elements on the dresser. You don’t find it all that often – I love it. I’ve tipped beaded moldings with Dutch Metal Gold or Silver (from Faux Effects…just using my finger as the paint brush and then antiqued it (after, of course, painting and antiquing the entire piece).

That top piece is a find. In addition to being great looking when you’re done, the drawers on these sorts of chests are nice and deep which will make whoever purchases it very happy. Looks and function in one piece. That’s what we all want!

Throw out the notion that good design is expensive, must be carried out by a professional and can only be bought in a fancy store. I live in a real home on a real budget and have never taken a design class in my life. A great look is affordable and attainable to anyone who is willing to roll up their sleeves and dive in. So, get ready to go junking, tune up the sewing machine, and buy a good paint brush. Your home's potential is waiting to be realized and you're the one who's going to discover it.
